Cwm Llafar Horseshoe from Gerlan, Gwynedd, Wales

There are days when you arrive later than planned and have to content yourself with poking around an area with an eye on the future due to time constraints. Nevertheless, you can come away with pleasing photos regardless of time limitations and this is an example. Despite planning to explore the Carneddau from their northern side, it hasn't happened yet. Given that Bethesda and Gerlan aren't without reasonable bus services, that seems a pity. That they aren't overrun with outdoors types adds to the feeling that this is away from the beaten track. Carnedd LLewelyn and Carnedd Dafydd are what are laid before you above, and I think that its high time that I walked in to see them up close and personal.
